The future is now with WWE 2K15's NXT ArRIVAL DLC pack

More On: WWE 2K15

I'll admit that not only am I a subscriber to the WWE Network (which you can be too for only $9.okay I'll shut up now), but most of what I watch is NXT on Wednesday nights.  While I have yet to pick up WWE 2K15 on the Xbox 360 I was hoping that NXT would have a little more of a presence beyond "Who's Got NXT" mode where you only have five NXT superstars.  Well, enter the latest DLC pack for WWE 2K15: NXT ArRIVAL.

The NXT ArRIVAL pack let's you play as Adam Rose, The Ascension (Viktor and Konnor), and Emma, as well as former NXT General Manager, WWE Champion, and current Monday Night Raw announcer JBL.  What I find ironic about this is that none of these superstars are currently on NXT.  Granted they were when WWE 2K15 was in the early stages of development, so I understand that.

The WWE 2K15: NXT ArRIVAL pack is now available on the Xbox 360, Xbox One, PlayStation 3, and PlayStation 4 for $6.99
